Things in the world are mostly a matter of time and effort. People who can accomplish things in one go are rare. Luck and strength are indispensable. Fortunately, God is not particularly cruel. Apart from life and death, he often gives people a second chance, so that many people like me who are dull-witted can at least have the courage to live in the world.
With the previous experience, I was obviously much calmer this time. After leaving the land where my ancestors had been digging for food and floating, I quickly adapted to it and even began to carefully feel this erratic feeling.
"Could it be that this is what it feels like to be a ghost?"
I couldn't help but have some random thoughts. This feeling of floating like a rootless duckweed is really not good. No wonder I get lost after being a ghost for a long time.
If there is only one difference, it is that I feel a sense of restraint on my wrist, just like flying a kite, and I am the kite flying in the sky, and Lao Bai is the one holding the string, but when I look down at my wrist, where is the red string?
I just thought about these things, but didn't pay too much attention to them. I paid more attention to the environment around me.
This foggy place should be considered the land of the underworld?
Without fear in my heart, I can't help but feel a little proud. Those who can enter the underworld while alive are all powerful people in the Xuanmen.
I once heard that the long-lost Maoshan Dao had a person who, in order to pursue an old man whose life span had not yet ended but whose soul was taken away, directly blocked the underworld on the road to the underworld and took away the old man's soul. It was a good story for a while, and people in the industry gave a thumbs up to this matter after dinner.
However, it is said that he also offended the ghost because of this incident, and the result was not good. When he was dying, the ghost who was scolded and stopped by him was the ghost who came to take him away. There are rules for taking the dead. When a person is about to die, the ghost will set out, and the ghost will arrive at the moment of his last breath. The ghost intends to harm him. After setting out, he speeds up the road. He arrives before he is completely dead and takes him away directly. Therefore, he died half a minute earlier than the destiny. The ghost slandered him that he could not bear the pain of dying and committed suicide. He was counted as a person who died in vain and was sent to the hell of vain death, where he suffered all kinds of suffering.
In any case, those who can have this experience should have more capital to brag in the future.
When I was daydreaming, a huge stone platform loomed in the endless rolling fog.
"The platform for commanding generals!!"
I was ecstatic, and all my thoughts disappeared at this moment. All I could see was the ancient lotus-shaped stone platform.
The force pulling me suddenly increased at this moment, dragging me straight towards the stone platform.
The rolling fog became uneasy, surging like a tide, and the evil spirits from the underworld emerged from it.
At first, they were scattered, but in the end, they almost rushed out of the fog shoulder to shoulder. In a trance, I felt like I was squeezed into a market of fierce ghosts. I was blocked from sight and could no longer see the platform for commanding generals. All I could see were ghost faces jumping in front of me, some ferocious, some vicious, and... some indescribable, indescribable...
These were just ghost soldiers and ghost generals. Anyone who was willing to go all out to invite gods would not invite masters like them, so it was difficult for them to accumulate merits and virtues, so they naturally had to compete to show off at this time.
A fat old ghost with red hair, bare arms, a big belly, a tuft of red hair on his chest, two arms as thick as my thighs swinging a huge stone mill, his fat body shaking "clattering", every time he plays a few times, he winks at me, his two thick eyebrows like Crayon Shin-chan jumping up and down, his spirits are high, really... I dare not learn...
There is also a charming female ghost who pesters me and refuses to let me go. Wherever I float, she follows me, shaking her big breasts wildly, it is very eye-catching...
My face was already as black as ink, thinking what kind of people are these, wielding sledgehammers, using their beauty to please people, I am not here to find a ghost wife, or recruit coal miners, what do I need you for? But I didn't dare to get angry, for fear that I would make an inappropriate move and be driven out of the underworld. I could only bow and apologize, saying that you are not the people I am looking for, please forgive me, and make way.
After these words came out, most of them gave way, except for the red-haired old ghost and the big-breasted female ghost, who were shameless, but there were too many ghosts here, like a frenzy, one after another.
I have a limited time to come here, and I haven't seen a character of some weight so far. I have been impatient for a long time. Just when I couldn't hold back, my speed suddenly increased, and the whole person flew straight into the air, flying over the heads of many ghost soldiers and ghost generals. The thick fog below rolled, covering the countless ghost soldiers and ghost generals, and nothing could be seen, even the square stone platform disappeared.
At this moment, I was in a trance and lost my mind for a moment, and completely lost the ability to think. When I came back to my senses, I was already on the command platform under my feet.
Everything in front of me was foggy, and there was only a stone platform floating above the rolling fog, just like climbing to the top of the mountain, overlooking the sea of clouds, and having a feeling of looking down on all the mountains.
However, there was nothing in the fog, nothing could be seen!
"Come up now?"
I was a little confused, not knowing how long it took all this. I subconsciously touched my wrist, the feeling of restraint was still there, and I didn't feel Lao Bai pulling, there should be some time, I didn't dare to dawdle, I stood up and bowed to the vast sea of fog, and said some righteous words, which were nothing more than establishing a heart for the world and a life for the people.
The gods of the underworld are naturally willing to do things like inviting gods. First, there is merit, and second, they can openly possess the body of a living person and absorb vitality, just like being reborn as a human being. There are many benefits. But it is better to understand these things in your heart, but it is not good to say them out loud. Although it does sound strange, it is obviously something you did yourself, but you just don't let people say it. If you say it, you will lose face. At the least, they will be angry and ashamed, and at the worst, they will kill you. But this is the fact, and I can only go with the flow. Whether you are a human or a ghost, there is not much difference in essence.
I grasped all these things accurately, so my words were a little tragic and majestic, with the momentum of drawing a knife to make a piece of it, and living up to the youth. I was almost moved by myself, and couldn't help but sigh, "What a selfless young man!" In fact, when I bowed down, my eyes turned back and forth, trying to find a domineering figure in the vast sea of fog that made my blood boil.
Unfortunately, there was none! !
Not even a hair! ! !
I swallowed hard, stood up and bowed again, and said some righteous words again.
In the end... there was still no one!
Eh?
That's not right!!
According to what Lao Bai and the others said, the plot shouldn't be like this!
Didn't they say that when Chen Tuan and Liu Bowen went to the underworld, they discussed Taoism with a group of bigwigs on the Dianjiangtai for several days and nights?
Why didn't anyone come here when I came?
I plucked up the courage to stand up and tentatively shouted, "Is there anyone?"
A cold sigh came from behind me, and then a gentle female voice sounded: "Young master, are you looking for someone here in the wrong place?"
I turned around suddenly, but saw a woman in Han Dynasty's deep clothes appeared behind me at some point.
I looked at her carefully, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is this the Dianjiangtai?"
The woman nodded gently.
"Then why is there no one here? Oh, no, why are there no gods from the underworld..."
I hesitated and said, "Didn't the Northern Emperor call for generals here?"
"Let's go."
The woman said, "It was the first time for the young master to come here. Everyone came here with great enthusiasm, but they saw that the young master was rude, so they left in anger..."
After saying this, she probably saw that I looked pale and a little embarrassed, so she said, "However, I heard that the young master's words were sincere and his tearful and bloody petition made people cry. How about I go with you?"
I looked at the woman with some suspicion. It was really hard for me to associate her with any powerful gods from the underworld. I had seen too many scammers before, so I had to be careful and asked cautiously, "What's your name, sister?"
"Qi."
The woman sighed, "It's better not to tell me my name. Time flies. Two thousand years have passed in the world. Dynasties have changed. My old friend has been reincarnated several times. There should be no one in the world who knows me..."
When I heard the style of this speech, I couldn't help but be distracted.
Two thousand years?
It's enough years, and the style of speaking seems to be very powerful!
I didn't know how powerful it was, but I was cautious by nature, so I asked, "My enemy is too vicious, and my sister looks so fragile, I don't know if my sister can deal with it..."
Originally, I wanted to ask her directly how high her official rank was, but I felt it was too abrupt and was afraid of angering the other party, so I changed my words.
However, even so, after asking again and again, the woman seemed unhappy and frowned, saying, "Young master is really ignorant. Do you ask like this because you don't trust me?"
As the saying goes, people have human appearances and ghosts have ghost appearances.
When people are angry, their fierceness is exposed. Then you can see who they are. The same is true for ghosts, but what you see is a dead face!!
The moment the woman frowned, I saw black air coming out of her body. She was no longer as beautiful as before. She was hazy. The black mist vaguely reflected a very creepy appearance. She looked like a person, but her hands and feet were chopped off, her eyes were blinded, and her hair was completely lost...
In short, she looked bald...
Even though I have seen many vicious appearances of corpses, ghosts and monsters, I was still frightened by this. My legs and feet were weak. Somehow, two words popped up in my mind - human pig!!
"Surname Qi..."
I muttered to myself: "This is really weird, surname Qi, such a miserable death, and she lived more than 2,000 years ago, this must be the Madam Qi who was badly harmed by Empress Lü in history!!"
After a brief shock, I vaguely understood who I pointed out on the stage!
Toilet God!!!
Madam Qi was deified after her death, and she was the Toilet God!
The stage called out the gods of the underworld, but they called the Ten Kings of Hell and the Ghost King Yin Shuai, and I fucking pointed out a Toilet God!!!
Of course, this Toilet God is not in charge of people's shitting and farting, nor does he really look at the toilet, but actually determines good and bad fortune...
Legend has it that there are actually many toilet gods, and Madam Qi is just one of them, also called Qi Gu, and there is another one called Zi Gu, who was also a poor woman in the Tang Dynasty who was deified after her death.
But the most orthodox toilet god is the Three Goddesses!!!
If I invited the Three Goddesses, they would be dancing with joy. That god was deified in the ancient war of gods, and her fighting power is definitely very strong. As for these toilet gods, they were all deified by poor women. They can tell good and bad luck, but in terms of fighting power - well, I awakened the Heavenly Official Blade, maybe I can fight on equal terms!
I am going to fight the Water King to death this time. What's the point of inviting a toilet god? Should I ask Qi Gu to read the fortune of the Water King and say that he will die under the sword and axe, and then the Water King will die immediately?
At this time, Qi Gu probably calmed down and regained her gentle and beautiful appearance. She was looking at me silently, and I looked at her steadily, and my heart was tangled to the extreme...
Could it be... I will return empty-handed again this time! ?
